How do you clean your leathers?

Meguiar's Gold Class Rich Leather Foam Cleaner and Conditioner

At your nearest R.E.P.C.O. store about twenty bucks - good stuff


Meguiar's for everything - you need to watch more tv dude

Dunno about their leather gear but Meguiars is good shit. Don't see any reason for the leather gear to be any different I guess.

Fucken posers!
I can't ride today, I'm cleaning my leathers.
Only time you need to clean your leathers is if you shat yourself or if you came in them - preferably not at the same time.
Other than that, ride fast in the rain.
Leathers come out clean and moisturised.

The best stuff to use is Renapur leather balsalm. It is a wax which has natural ingredients which protect, waterproofs and nourishes leather. It also restores the orignal softness and colour. I have been using this stuff for over 15 years and one 250ml tub does for a year or two. I use this on my work boots and other leathers. If you have problems finding this the company are based in West Sussex, United Kingdom. Its bloody good stuff and resulting in the amount of crap it takes off my boots and leathers really worth the dosh. If i remember it was only $30 for a tub, not the cheapest but definately the best.

When your leathers get older and dry it gets more tricky to get the blood out as it tends to soke in. And it makes the leathers stiff too. But old motor oil works wonders. It also makes the leathers waterproof.

I've got some of that, and I don't rate it. Compared to other products like SnoSeal, it doesn't measure up as far as waterproofing, restoring the leather's suppleness, etc. It's a little less sticky than SnoSeal, so easier to apply (and soaks in), but I have this sneaky suspicion it may be mostly something like vaseline, as it has the same consistency, unlike SnoSeal that's mostly B Zwhacks, or beeswax or whatever.

I'm basically a lazy sod, and I'm still looking for something that sprays on, or wipes on easily, or even better, that applies itself. So far, SnoSeal has the best performance, but it's the hardest to apply, due to its stickiness. On the other end of the scale, I have some products like Zorbilene that are relatively easy to apply, but next to useless.
